EDGEWATER, Md. — The Anne Arundel County Fire Department recovered the bodies of two jet skiers during a water rescue in Edgewater.

Crew were called to the South River, just off of Edgewater Drive, around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday. Officials said a man and a woman went out for a ride on the water around 1:30 a.m. Moments later, witnesses told officials that they heard a collision.

The department tells WMAR-2 News that when crews arrived they found a damaged jet ski, but not the two passengers. Investigators believe the jet ski crashed into a water pylon.
